ARTHUR MAYS VILLAS, NARANJA, MODELLO II, AND PINE ISLAND PHD

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · report

This legislative item, File Number 260775, concerns a status report on the redevelopment of multiple public housing developments. The original directive was to negotiate lease and development agreements with SG South Miami-Dade Ventures, LLC for Arthur Mays Villas, Naranja, Modello II, and Pine Island, and with PCSH Little River Development, LLC for Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace, without a competitive process. However, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) denied the County's request to proceed without a competitive process on March 13, 2026. Consequently, the County is unable to move forward with the direct award of development rights. The recommended action is to initiate a competitive process for these projects. The Little River Public Housing Resiliency Upgrades Project, funded by a $15,000,000.00 grant from the State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection, is also mentioned in relation to Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace, aiming to address flooding and sea level rise vulnerabilities.
